Twitter ads go mobile

Twitter is pushing forward with its mobile advertising, as its MoPub ad network now reaches more than 1 billion iOS and Android users every month.

In the last couple of weeks however the words humour and strength have cropped up in advertising feminine hygiene products. Thought provoking video #LikeAGirl from Always and the refreshingly funny First Moon Party from HelloFlo have both challenged the stereotypes of advertising women's products. It makes you think what other products we can look at in a new light?
